Police Custody of Ragini Dwivedi, Sanjana Galrani Extended by 3 Days

The order came on a day when footage emerged of the two actors throwing tantrums and refusing to give samples for a medical exam and dope test. The samples were ultimately taken and police will continue their questioning.

In the video, Sanjjanaa is seen arguing why she should allow samples to be taken as they were against her fundamental rights. Ragini tells the police team, “If we get caught again, we will have to go to jail. Our life is already ruined.”

Sanjjanaa is seen in the video telling the crime branch, “I have lost trust in the police. I don’t know why I have been arrested. I asked you with folded hands, you are not telling me the reason. Even if I give blood tests, I don’t trust that the blood will be mine. My lawyers told me to say ‘no.’ It’s my fundamental right to say no. Nobody can force me to give blood samples. You people have tricked me into coming here. There is no evidence against me, I didn’t do anything wrong. Just because we spoke to each other over the phone doesn’t mean that I am involved in the crime.”

The police used this video to seek extension of their custodial interrogation on Friday evening. The actiors’ lawyers argued that they must be shifted to judicial custody as there were no drugs found in their possession and that their arrests were based entirely on hearsay evidence.
